Looking at Feng Cang's expression, he must have doted on Murong Qiqi in his heart.
If he could control Murong Qiqi, how could he not control Feng Cang? Even if Feng Cang had the intention to rebel, he could still throw Murong Qiqi out. At that time, Feng Cang's reputation would be tarnished, and the people's hearts would be against him. No matter how capable he was, he would not be able to escape!
However, in order to obtain Murong Qiqi, the first thing he had to do was deal with Yu Shishi, who had taken over the position of the crown prince's consort … He had to make room for her. Otherwise, his father would definitely be displeased if Murong Qiqi was forced to take on the position of a side consort. Rather than waiting for the Emperor Father to make a move, it was better to do it himself. At that time, he might even be able to leave a good impression in front of Wanyan Lie.
Wanyan Hong and Wanyan Yi, the two brothers of the imperial family, had completely different opinions. However, Yu Shishi and Wanyan Baozhu, the two women, had shockingly similar opinions.
From Murong Qiqi, Yu Shishi saw an unprecedented danger. She could clearly see the desire in Wanyan Hong's eyes. This man was ruthless and unscrupulous. If he wanted to please Murong Qiqi and depose her, what would she do? Who else could she rely on now?
Because Murong Qiqi threatened her position, Yu Shishi treated Murong Qiqi as her number one enemy, while Wanyan Baozhu hated everything about Murong Qiqi. In the past, she was the daughter of the first wife of the Murong Clan and had suppressed her. Now, she was the princess of the Northern Zhou Country and had suppressed her even more. How could Wanyan Baozhu accept this?
Why was Murong Qiqi's life better than hers? Why was it always Murong Qiqi who had the upper hand? She refused to accept this!
Right now, the marriage between Wanyan Baozhu and Longze Jingtian had not been decided yet, but Murong Qiqi was already going to be the Empress of Beizhou in the future. This was clearly above her, and Wanyan Baozhu's stubborn heart could not bear it! Time and time again, he was oppressed by Murong Qiqi and trampled on by her. When would such days come to an end?
She was indignant! She was indignant that Murong Qiqi was stronger than her in everything!
The atmosphere on the stage was strange. Murong Qiqi took in the expressions on everyone's faces. Be it envy, jealousy, hatred, or resentment, all of it amused her. Originally, she didn't want to get involved in anything. But since Wanyan Lie gave her this position, she had no choice but to face it. Thinking about it, she was the most innocent one.
Since this identity would bring her a lot of trouble, if she didn't make use of her current identity to show off, wouldn't she be letting these people down?
"Uncle, Jingde Eunuch said that Changqiu Palace is the most beautiful place in the entire imperial harem, right?"
The emotions in everyone's eyes stirred Murong Qiqi's rebellious heart. The more people envied her for being favored, the more she had to live up to her name!
"Yeah! Do you want to take a look? "Judging from Murong Qiqi's tone, Wanyan Lie was very happy that she was interested in the Everautumn Palace.
Before the Battle of Yandang Mountain, Wanyan Lie had kept the Changqiu Palace empty. Even though he knew that it was the residence of the previous Empresses, he still refused to give it to Li Bing. In Wanyan Lie's heart, only Wanyan Mingyue was worthy of living in the Changqiu Palace. It was only after he had placed Wanyan Mingyue in the underground palace beneath the Changqiu Palace that he brought those women over.
Now that Wanyan Mingyue's daughter, Murong Qiqi, had returned, he naturally had to return it to its rightful owner and let Murong Qiqi live there. Back then, he had hoped so much that her mother could live there. Even though it was impossible, it didn't mean that he had given up.
Wanyan Mingyue had slept for so many years and refused to wake up to see him. If she knew that her daughter had been found, if she could hear Murong Qiqi's story and voice, would she forgive him for what he had done? Would she wake up?
"Alright! It's quite stuffy sitting here anyway! " Murong Qiqi said as she stood up. Feng Cang very cooperatively helped her put on her cloak and attentively prepared a heater for Murong Qiqi. Only when she was done did he feel at ease.
The intimate actions of this pair of siblings had changed the look in everyone's eyes. Only Wanyan Lie's eyes were filled with joy. It was as if he was looking at his younger self and the young Wanyan Mingyue.
"You guys don't have to go! I'll accompany Qiqi! Cang 'er, you should rest too. With me around, no one will bully Qiqi! " When Feng Cang put on the fox fur coat and was about to go with them, Wanyan Lie spoke up and excluded everyone except Murong Qiqi.
Wanyan Lie wanted to be alone with Murong Qiqi? This matter alarmed Feng Cang. After all, Wanyan Lie had done too many evil things to the Feng Family. If he wanted to do anything to Murong Qiqi, what should he do?
"Brother, wait for me to come back!" Murong Qiqi smiled sweetly at Feng Cang, reassuring him. If Wanyan Lie wanted to do anything to her, she could take his head and avenge Feng Xie and Wanyan Mingyue. It would also be good for her and Feng Cang to leave this troublesome place as soon as possible.
Following Wanyan Lie, the group made their way to the Eternal Autumn Palace. When they arrived at the entrance of the palace, Wanyan Lie asked them to stop and entered with Murong Qiqi alone.
It had to be said that the Eternal Autumn Palace was the most luxurious palace that Murong Qiqi had ever seen. It was a lot more luxurious than the main hall where Wanyan Lie attended court. What surprised Murong Qiqi was that the Eternal Autumn Palace was filled with plum blossoms.
"My mother likes plum blossoms too …" Murong Qiqi said softly as she gently stroked the bright red flowers.
Murong Qiqi's words seemed to have triggered Wanyan Lie's imagination. The way he looked at Murong Qiqi became even gentler. It seemed like Mingyue had dressed up just like this many years ago. She had stood in the plum garden and her charming appearance was something that he could not forget even now.
"That's right! Mingyue loves plum blossoms the most … "
The loneliness and desolation in Wanyan Lie's voice shocked Murong Qiqi.
Why was Wanyan Lie's voice filled with sorrow when he mentioned Wanyan Mingyue? It was said that when Wanyan Mingyue was alive, her brother doted on her so much that he wanted to pluck the stars from the sky for her. If this doting was real, why did Wanyan Lie set up the incident at Yandang Mountain? Why did he plot against Feng Xie and Mingyue? Why did he put his hatred on Feng Cang?
